LDL Chorizo Sausage

[BigBen]

The deep south, Miss gramma.  Where everyone eats fried catfish and hush puppies and moms have big tubs of lard in there pantries! Good thing I don't live with my mom and granny any more or i'd be having heaps of trouble eating Let's do lunch with all that lard and bacon grease around and the pies they make.  BB

OH Ben you can tell just from the way you talk that you have to be from the south!! "Miss Gramma", "Lard", "Bacon grease" ...yep sounds like southern cookin to me. How bout those old biscuit and sausage gravy? Sweet potato pie? Sound like something your family would be makin very often??

I M quite sure that at least 25 of the extra pounds I M carrying around my middle are only there cuz of all the biscuits & sausage gravy I ate before, that's for real sure.  BB

Sounds all too familiar Ben!!! Matter of fact my 4 yr old says daddy has gravy eyes instead of gray eyes....I say its all that gravy pooled from years of eating it on everything!!!  We havent had the heart to tell her gravy isnt a color!

Michelle,

Yes, I'm sure that the sauce would've made the corn thins fall apart... I don't think Mary used sauce.  White pizzas traditionally don't have sauce on them.  Before LDL, I used to make mini white pizzas on flour tortillas - just cheese, spices & pepperoni (I've given all my pepperoni away to my son!!).

When I finally get to the store and get some more corn thins, I think I will try it.

I do not have my book yet....what are corn thins?

[imkay]

corn thins are pressed popcorn.  they look like a rice cake but have WAY more flavor.  i use them for sugar-free soy nut butter and sugar free jelly sandwich.  my DH used them for egg and soy cheese sandwich.  we use them instead of crackers for tori's tuna salad.

most health food stores carry them.  just make sure you get the original corn thins and not any of the other varieties

I just saw some chorizo sausage made from soy. Anyone know of it?

[BigBen]

So for lunch the other day I crumbled like half a recipe of the chorizo in my frying pan & I threw in a can of chopped tomatoes & some vegtables from the fridge there were some beans & some carrots & some corn, and I cooked it all up & it turned into a spicy stew U should try it sometime. Here is Iron Chef Benny's 1st Let's Do Lunch recipe for the website.  thx, BB

This sounds fantastic!!  I just happen to have some LDL chorizo sausage in my freezer right now.  I'm going to give it a try!  Thanks so much...

(And to think that less than 6 months ago you thought you couldn't cook!!)  I'm SO PROUD OF YOU!!!
